I have a Kia Forte. Is it slim enough to fit in a smaller car like this?

Thank you for your interest in our products! All our car seats fit in most US vehicles. The Contender Slim is 18.9in W x 24.75in H x 21.5in D. Please reference the car seat manual and your vehicle owner's manual for information about how to safely install car seats in your specific vehicle.

If flying, can I fly with this car seat without taking the base?

Convertible seats don’t have a base like the infant bucket seats. It’s all together. You can fly just fine with this one.

I am seeing different weights depending on where i look. is it 15.9 lbs? is the contender 65 actually lighter?

Thanks for reaching out! The Product Weight:16 lb. We hope this information helps!
